Problem with fluid in my lungs!? Help!?

Question

For at least 5 months I have seemed to have more problems breathing. I have mild asthma, but don't take anything on a regular basis. Every morning when I wake up I can feel the gurgling in my chest or if I'm in bed even on my side for very long when I get up it's there. This has been an on going thing, but not really any other symptoms besides feeling out of breath (which is prob. from fluid). Anyway, I don't have insurance and Dr bills are stacking up from other things. I have thyroid disease and hormone imbalance that I have to get an implant for and I also have to pay my psychiatrist that prescribes my medications for a chemical imbalance. Those bills are draining me! Anyway, I don't smoke but feeling these symptoms are starting to freak me out because they won't go away and the fluid has gotten a little worse as time goes on. What can that mean? I have had bronchitis before and I'm not coughing, no fever, nothing?????

Answer 1

sounds to me like congessive heart failure or a liver problem, have you been put on dietric's to try and dry up the fluid? Does your ankles and lower legs swell? Maybe you could rule out these things. I'm in the medical field.

Answer 2

How old are you? You may have walking pneumonia, which the only solution is antibiotics.  there is no other way to fix it.  You have to go to the ER, they cannot deny you treatment there.  Don't worry about you bills for now, your health is a priority and it is obviously deteriorating. And it will only get worst. So please see a doctor.
